Rusty Spoons

by Good Enough   Jul 11, 2009


Velvet sky lines lace mountain tops
My body lays broken among death
A deed, bound to heartless actions
The craving, to bleed your name away

Rusty spoons carve a way to my heart
Flesh and blood painted upon the canvas
Stained red fingers plead away cries
Wiping away tears of pure agony

Heartbeats fade to endless black
As a rusty spoon makes way to depths
Of a soul chained to painful memories
Finally set loose to soaring clouds

A body exposed to your touch
My heart left to rot with rusty spoons
To bleed hateful remorse on shady greens
As the sun sets finally among the mountains

    OH, Ashley...

    You really have emotions that make me just feel so helpless to help you,
    The way you write is just heartbreaking, I can't say much more than, you are a very talented person who needs to believe in themselves and let your poetry calm you.

  • Firstly, LOVE the title - I had no clue what to expect, but it absolutely drew me in.

    This piece was so sad, but also somewhat beautiful. With your choice of words you softened the dark content - hopefully that was intentional..? - which is quite a feat in itself.

    The piece flowed really well and you managed to paint a vivid scene with your words.

    Well penned. 5/5
